We propose a method for computing approximations to the Hecke eigenvalues of a classical modular eigenform $f$, based on the analytic evaluation of $f$ at points in the upper half plane. Our approach works with arbitrary precision, allows…

We determine the set of quaternionic Serre weights for generic two-dimensional mod $p$ representation of $\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb Q}_p / K)$, where $K$ is a finite unramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$.

In this article, we give evidence that computing Fourier coefficients of the Hecke eigenforms for composite indices is no easier than factoring integers. In particular, we show that the existence of a polynomial time algorithm that, given…

We characterize the space of new forms for $\Gamma_0(m)$ as a common eigenspace of certain Hecke operators which depend on primes $p$ dividing the level $m$. To do that we find generators and relations for a $p$-adic Hecke algebra of…

Given two Siegel eigenforms of different weights, we determine explicit sets of Hecke eigenvalues for the two forms that must be distinct. In degree two, and under some additional conditions, we determine explicit sets of Fourier…

In this article we give a criterion for a mod $\ell$ eigenvalue system attached to a mod $\ell$ Katz cuspform to arise from lower level or weight. Namely, we prove the following: the eigenvalue system associated to a ring homomorphism…

Let $f$ be a newform of weight $2$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ with Fourier $q$-expansion $f(q)=q+\sum_{n\geq 2} a_n q^n$, where $\Gamma_0(N)$ denotes the group of invertible matrices with integer coefficients, upper triangular mod $N$. Let $p$ be a…

For each prime $p$, we determine the distribution of the $p^{th}$ Fourier coefficients of the Hecke eigenforms of large weight for the full modular group. As $p\to\infty$, this distribution tends to the Sato--Tate distribution.

Let p be a prime and F a totally real field in which p is unramified. We consider mod p Hilbert modular forms for F, defined as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties of level prime to p in characteristic p. For a…

Let G be a torsion-free finite-index subgroup of SL(n,Z) or GL(n,Z), and let d be the cohomological dimension of G. We present an algorithm to compute the eigenvalues of the Hecke operators on the integral cohomology of degree d-1 for n =…

Let $p$ be a prime number and $N$ an integer prime to $p$. We show that the operator $U_p$ on the space of cuspidal modular forms of level $pN$ and weight two is semi-simple. It follows from this that the Hecke algebra acting on the space…

Recently, Allen et al. developed the Explicit Hypergeometric Modularity Method (EHMM) that establishes the modularity of a large class of hypergeometric Galois representations in dimensions two and three. Motivated by this framework, we…

In the article, we consider a question concerning the estimation of summatory function of the Fourier coefficients of Hecke eigenforms indexed by a sparse set of integers. In particular, we provide an estimate for the following sum;…

This note outlines an approach to defining $p$-adic Shimura classes and $p$-adic derived Hecke operators on the completed cohomology of modular curves from upcoming work by the author. After reviewing the modulo-$p$ constructions of Harris…

This is a report on recent work, with Wen-Ching Winnie Li and Ling Long. In that work explicit formulas are given, involving hypergeometric character sums, for the traces of Hecke operators $T_p$ acting spaces of cusp forms $S_k(\Gamma)$ of…

Let $\Gamma$ be a congruence subgroup of $SL_2(Z)$, and let $f$ be a normalized eigenform of weight $k$ on $\Gamma$. Let $K$ denote the number field generated over $Q$ by the Fourier coefficients of $f$. Let $R$ denote the the order in $K$…

We introduce an alternate set of generators for the Hecka algebra, and give an explicit formula for the action of these operators on Fourier coefficients. With this, we compute the eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on average Siegel…

We use deformation theory to study the big Hecke algebra acting on mod-2 modular forms of prime level $N$ and all weights, especially its local component at the trivial representation. For $N = 3, 5$, we prove that the maximal reduced…

We investigate certain finiteness questions that arise naturally when studying approximations modulo prime powers of p-adic Galois representations coming from modular forms. We link these finiteness statements with a question by K. Buzzard…

Using the modularity technique of Wiles, we study the Hecke algebra of weight 2 and prime level N localized at the Eisenstein primes. On the way, we recover some results of Mazur ("Modular Curves and the Eisenstein Ideal") from a…
